Abstract

Abstract : The Front Cover shows the X‐ray structure of a cationic diiron carbonyl cyclopentadienide complex with a bridging aminocarbyne ligand and the sites where various nucleophiles can add selectively, depending on their nature. The synthetic procedure to prepare this kind of complexes has been optimized, and the electrophilic behaviour has been investigated experimentally and by means of DFT calculations. More information can be found in theFull Paper by F. Marchetti et al. For more on the story behind the cover research, see theCover Profile .
